"Do you fall like dust on a ruin? Empty and dead like the life you are losing."
For this episode, we go back to 2011 and Gary Numan's album Dead Son Rising, for its lead single 'The Fall'.
Intended as an 'outtakes' album to fill the gap between Jagged and Splinter, it ended up being its own fully-fledged album thanks to the persistence of producer Ade Fenton.
This episode focuses on the lead single, including:
- How Nine Inch Nails and Trent Reznor inspired it
- How Gary got through apathy to finish the album
- Its original track from the Pure sessions
- Is it based on an apparent fallout with a former band member?
- The music video filmed in a creepy abandoned asylum
